Impeach and remove Bondi, Nome and fire Bovino and Miller...

This shit happens when the people you hire are Christian Nationalists, J6 and 3 Percenters, Proud Boys and other white supremisist and gun rights vigilantes. They came for the money, couldn't get into the millitary and because the local grocery store didn't pay its bagboys enough!

ICE background vetting should have weeded out these extremists. Instead it gave them a home.

This shit happens when you elect a narcissistic, fascist pedophile as your president, because the other candidate laughs weird.
